    Digital Download..Yes you can get your money back!

    I know the other thread was closed. I don't create new thread to feed the trolls or the masses, but to connect with those who paid for the digital download and then canceled the digital download thru Sony.

    I got my refund (yes I know a little about contract law too :wink because I called Sony and politely asked them to cancel my order since the digital download was not available at the time advertised. I want to stress though that the reason Sony agreed to refund my money (after they later sent me an email declining my request) because I "detrimentally relied" on Sony's word that they would refund my money and bought a retail copy of the game.

    So..if (and only if) you are one of those persons who did the same, you should consider contacting Sony for a refund. The difference here is that Sony promised a refund and I already paid for the retail copy after they said they would reimburse me.

    Here is copy of response (minus my name):


    PS Family LogoPlayStation® Support - Refund

    [],

    I did the same this evening, explained to the customer service rep that I waited until lunch the day of release and bought a physical copy of the game and was told by another customer service rep that I'd get a refund (to which I received an email denying the refund claiming all sales are final). I explained to her that I had a copy of the chat from online, to which she put me on hold and probably pulled the chat herself.

    She spoke to her supervisor and said the funds will be back in my Playstation Wallet within 7 business days. Time will tell.

        Equivalent of $10 credit total. I paid $59.99 for a pre-order, then $65.39 (with tax) for a physical copy of the game after waiting twelve hours beyond the initial set time for the game's release.

        I'm not bashing Sony. There was an ample amount of that yesterday on these forums. I'm just not going to pay double for a game. At least not if I can avoid it.

          Its better than nothing for those that waited for the digital version to release.

          It wasn't a major issue really... These things happen, they have apologised. All is good.

          There is clearly something not right with the digital version though as its delayed in the EU as well

            And it was closed for a reason.

            It doesn't mean start a new one to essentially have the same debate.
